The White Company	comment	A historical novel by Arthur Conan Doyle, set during the Hundred Years' War. It mainly follows the adventures of Alleyne Edricson, who is squire to Sir Nigel Loring, and two of his comrades: Samkin Aylward and Hordle John as they travel across France to meet up with the eponymous White Company. Along the way, they have a quite a number of chance encounters, whereby much honor is gained through noble deeds and feats of arms.Some years later, Doyle wrote Sir Nigel, recounting Sir Nigel Loring's youth and how he met Samkin.

He thinks nothing of juggling three girlfriends and chasing anything in a skirt between visits, but he is very well aware of the difference between 'playing hard to get' and 'not interested', and won't chase a woman who doesn't want to be chased. Threaten a woman of any age or rank in his presence and you are dead.

A bit later, when Alleyne is trying to climb down a cliff in order to find help for the White Company, one of these slingers decides to take potshots at him. Alleyne is hit twice, and he suffers shattered ribs and a concussion. This is during the historical battle of Navarrete, where the Spanish did indeed have a sizable contingent of slingers.

The White Company / int_def5d614	type	Suddenly Suitable Suitor
The White Company / int_def5d614	comment	Suddenly Suitable Suitor: Late in the plot, the Socman of Minstead is killed while besieging Twynham Castle, which means Alleyne now owns a sizable estate and a small fortune. It is after he finds this out that he approaches Sir Nigel to ask for his daughter's hand in marriage. Actually a bit better than most examples of this trope, as Nigel would have also required a potential husband to be a man who had proven his courage under fire in addition to being able to support a wife, and Alleyne had definitely proved that in his travels with the White Company.
